10 Unique Experiences To Try In Montana This Year

When people talk about things to do in Montana, the conversation usually goes straight to our two national parks.

And don’t get me wrong, they’re incredible. But Montana has a lot more going for it than just national parks.

Unique Things To Do In Montana Beyond Camping And Hiking

We’ve also got 55 state parks, plus all kinds of other outdoor activities that don’t always get the same attention.

I’ll be honest, when I first started working on this article, I didn’t realize just how many unique experiences are out there under the Big Sky.

Fresh Ideas For Enjoying The Treasure State

To find some ideas, we dug into TripAdvisor’s “things to do in Montana” section.

And just so you know, we didn’t simply grab the top 10 entries and call it a day. We tried to be a little more selective and highlight activities that feel unique, fun, and maybe even a little overlooked.

The goal is to showcase things that tourists might not know about and that some Montana locals might not have discovered yet either.

So if you’re looking for a few fresh ideas for getting outside and enjoying the Treasure State, check out the gallery below.
